About Us

For centuries, the Martial Arts have been building strong and confident children and adults. Since Jason McCormick opened the doors of Karate World in 1995, our programs have given hundreds of students the confidence, athletic coordination, and training in a mixed format that adheres to authentic tradition.

Karate, Kickboxing, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu engages the entire Human body with a vast repertoire of defensive moves, increased balance, and improved concentration. At Karate World, Karate is taught in a form to increase each student’s personal empowerment, control of fear, and growth of inner peace. Our curriculum is inclusive and flexible, so students build a repertoire of techniques over time. We emphasize the qualities of respect, confidence, loyalty, character, humility, focus, faithfulness, and self-discipline.
